Aligning Fence & Table; Using Table Insert; Adjusting Fence - Grizzly T31636 Owner's Manual

Aligning
Fence & Table
When using a miter gauge, it is important to make
sure the fence is parallel with the table T-slot. This
will help ensure that the workpiece does not bind
or kick back during operation.
Use the scales inlaid in the fence attachment
T-slots to make the distance equal between the
fence and the T-slot along the full length of the
table (see Figure 33).
To avoid workpiece kickback or binding
when using a miter gauge with this router
table, ALWAYS make sure fence is parallel
with table T-slot before beginning routing
operations.

with T-slot.

Using Table Insert

The Model T31636 comes with a 1
(see Figure 34) that snaps into the center of the
mounting plate and provides additional safety and
control near the router bit during router operations.

The insert provides additional workpiece support
by minimizing the gap between the bit and the
table. Always use the insert when it will not inter-
fere with the bit during the operation.

Adjusting Fence

The fence assembly on the Model T31636 has
an infeed fence and outfeed fence. These can
be moved side-to-side to increase or decrease
the space around the router bit. The less space
there is around the bit, the less opportunity there
is of kickback and of the operator contacting the
bit. Fences should always be adjusted as close
as possible to offer the utmost support for the
workpiece.
The infeed/outfeed fences are secured to the
fence base with T-bolts and knobs (see Figure
35). Use these knobs to loosen or tighten the
infeed/outfeed fences against the base.
